The second-seeded former world No. 1 superstar dismantled helpless Indian
Somdev Devvarman 6-2, 6-1, 6-1 in a brisk 82-minute affair on Court Lenglen.
Devvarman was a two-time NCAA champion while attending the University of
Virginia.

Federer boasts a men's-record 254 Grand Slam singles match victories and is
now third on the men's Open-Era list with 56 wins at the French.

The 31-year-old veteran is the all-time men's leader with 17 Grand Slam
singles titles, including last year's Wimbledon championship and the 2009
French Open crown. The Swiss great is also a four-time Roland Garros runner-up
to Rafael Nadal, who also beat his long-time rival Federer in the Rome Masters
finale two weeks ago.

Federer's third-round opponent will be quality Frenchman Julien Benneteau, who
upset the Swiss legend in Rotterdam earlier this season.

Meanwhile, fourth-seeded David Ferrer and sixth seed Jo-Wilfried Tsonga also
secured spots in the third round in Paris.

Ferrer, a semifinalist at Roland Garros last year, broke serve eight times
in routing fellow Spaniard Albert Montanes 6-2, 6-1, 6-3 on the famed red clay
in Paris. Montanes was fresh off his clay-court title in Nice.

The gritty Ferrer will next take on another compatriot, Feliciano Lopez, who
beat Portuguese Joao Sousa by a 3-6, 6-3, 6-4, 6-4 margin.
